The B. u. Mine Horror

NANAIMo, B. c., May 5.-TeN white
men and seven Cinnamon were taken
from the Vancouver coal mine, dead.
There are now imprisoned in the mine
ninety white men of different nationali-
ties and fifty Cinnamon. 1t Ia feared
that all will perish of sufiocatlon. Sam.
uel Hudson, who went down to rescue
his friends died from the effects OF after
damp. His brave deeds were among the
bright things In this carnival of misery.
A gang OF men have been endeavoring to
extlnguish the flames In No. | shaft.
and these are believed now TO be under
control. 1t is absolutely impossible to
get at the Imprisoned men, till the fire
is subdued, for IL more air went in, 1t
would force gas into the fire and cause a
second disaster. Even now fears are
entertained that the whole place will be
blown up. A black pail hangs over tue
city. Business houses are all closed,
collieries are shut up and the entire pop
ulation gathered at the scene Of disaster,
and terror stricken wives and children
and torro wing fathers hover in the
vicinity and moan In their terrible af
Fiction. The cause OF the explosion is
unknown, but 1t Is generally supposed
to be the explosion OF coal duet. Ii is
thought this morning that the fire in
the air shaft has been extinguished and
that small body of flame exists between
the air and main shafts, which may be
conquered, when an attempt will be
made to bring air in and begin the work
OF rescue. The late shift that came up
reported hearing picks striking on the
opposite side walls There is a feeling
OF hope, but that hope is unfortunately
faint.

All Arizona Shaken.

Tucson. A. T., May %. 1t is believed
that volcano is in active operation in
San Jose mountain, on the border Of So
nora, Mexico, about 70 miles southwest
Of here. Yesterday afternoon black
curling smoke was plainly visible. All
last night fires were intermitted, burst
ing into fright light and then apparent
ly dying down, only to burst out again.
The true state of affairs is not known
here yet From a private telegram
from Fort Huachua this morning 1t Is
learned that Gen. Forsyth, commanding
post, would head an investigating COM
mission. Advices from PantanO, Brit
tin, Globe and elsewhere show that the
earthquake has been general throughout
Southern Arizona In Tucson, while no
serious damage has been done, there is
no part of the city but shows its effects.
1t will be sons time before the full re-
suit of the earthquake in Santa Cata-
lima mountains can be learned, as the
range lie one Of the most rugged and diff
ficult OF access In the whole territory.

cries, but parties are arranging

first it was thought to be woods on fire,
but the constancy of t"e burning and
the appearance at night indicate it is

It Was Hunhle

Mrs. Bishop. OF Thompson street,
near Thirteenth, has ricii and eecen-
trio old maiden sister in Ohio. The
Bishop children invariably received a
present from her, and this Christmas 1t
came with instructions that it should
not be opened until half an hour before
the Christmas dinner was ready.
Naturally the curiosity OF the Bishop
family was great concerning the con-
tents of the box. and the children could
hardly contain themselves.
At last the smoking turkey was
ready for the table. and the hour had
arrived when Aunt Emma's Christmas
gift should be open to the light of day.
Mr.. Bishop ripped up the lid, and
eight little Bishops eyes watched with
breathless curiosity the coming forth
Of the contents. The father lifted out
package wrapped about with many
folds of paper. Layer after layer was
removed. The floor was half covered
with paper before, at last. a r.ch-look-
ing fruit cake was disclosed to view, as
beautiful and brown cake as ever
graced Christmas board.
"a knife exclaimed Mr.. Bishop.
and in a twinkle the sharp edge Of the
carving-knife was plunged deep into
the tempting mass. But. horror OF
horrors. what frightful thing was this!
From the aperture made by the knife
crawled forth myria.l of fat black
things which swarmed upon the table
and caused the Bishop family to gasp
with smazement and jump from their
chairs. The swarming insects were
reaches, and before Mr.. Bishop could
recover from his astonishment they
had taken possession OF half the table.
to say moth ng of the Christmas tur-
key. With cry of anguish the head
of the family rushed upon the half
broken cake. and grasping it in his
hand dashed wildly out to the kitchen
and thence to the back yard. Had he
not been quick about it the house would
have been filled with the crawling
things. As it was, aud hour was con-
sumed in ridding the dining-room Of
the presence of the roaches that had
got out of their imprisonment before
Aunt Emma's Christmas cake could be
thrown into the yard. 1t took the SER
want girl, the cook and Mr.. Bishop four
hours to clean out the back yard. Mrs.
Bishop was put to bed with nervous
chill, and Mr.. Bishop and the children
went down town for their Christmas
dinner. RhsbMrg Dispatch.
